I wouldn't say the price is instantly a dealbreaker if I were in the market for such a device. It isn't just a typical console. It's a piece of hardware that is meant to replace every console known to man (now and in the future) and your media center. The price is actually pretty fair when comparing it to a new built PC with the same specs. And the SSD alone is like 200 dollars. Explains the major pricetag.
The concept is pretty solid but it will take time for people to adapt to the idea of having a small box that has all forms of home entertainment on it. Especially with the current console market being pretty saturated, I imagine it to be quite difficult to introduce a new console, let alone a new home entertainment concept such as this.
